Flames of Healing

Blaze.

Orange embers, scorching heat.

Burn.

Flames of guidance, flames of light.

Disintegrate.

A sea of fire, engulfing the world whole.

The Laws worked in mysterious ways. They encompassed the various elements of nature, and organized them into ten layers from just barely scratching the surface to the deepest comprehension. Take fire, for example. At first glance, it was just an element that provided heat and light. But as one begins to study it further, looking beyond just what's on the surface… they find that there is far more to the element of fire than just setting something ablaze.

That is where Golden Flames come in. At first, they had burned Xuan's skin, causing stinging pain. But as he endured, the prickling sensation faded, and a new appreciation came to light. It was warm and beautiful, like the hearth of a campfire and the kindling of hope in a fragile, once-broken heart.

This fire… it was healing.
